The Whiffenpoofs - Up in the Air (2019)

The Yale Whiffenpoofs, founded in 1909 at a tavern in New Haven, has grown from a collegiate singing ensemble into a globe-trotting entertainment force, captivating audiences of all ages. Now in our 109th year, we –– the Class of 2018 –– are proud to present Up in the Air. It’s both a culmination of our time as stewards of a rich tradition and a snapshot of our experience sharing this music with a world that is markedly different from what it was a century ago.

Our year was spontaneous, ambiguous, and at times unmoored. These 8 new arrangements and 8 revived classics, spanning genre and decade, reflect our experience and reanimate the group’s established sound. With this album, we take a definitive step toward the future, embracing uncertainty as delightful and the unknown as an adventure. Join us Up in the Air.
